POLYMIX® PX-MFC 90 D Laboratory mill DRY SAMPLE PREPARATION IN THE LABORATORY polyMIX® - Laboratory mill Analysis or quality control requires finely ground samples. Easy to change grinding attachments and sieves extend the range of any samples that can be processed. Simple handling, high user safety and efficient grinding results are just a few of the advantages of this mill. RESULTS ARE CRUCIAL Attainable particle sizes < 40µm (depending on product) Sieve kernel sizes 1/5 of sieve diameter is the approximately attainable kernel size e.g. sieve 0.2mm / 5 = 0.04mm (40µm) Grinding attachment variants Hammering/Cutting from hardened stainless steel YOUR LABORATORY EXPERT This laboratory mill is characterized by a very robust design using solid milled parts and hardened components that have been designed for high wear and tear found with such processes as grinding of stones which can have a hardness of up to 6 on the Mohs scale. You will receive tried and tested Swiss quality.

Each mill includes a 2.0 mm sieve attachment Sieve sizes: Depending on the product, 1/5 of sieve diameter is the approximately attainable particle size Example: Sieve 0.2mm / 5 = 0.04mm (40μm) Grinding attachments If there are questions regarding the use of our mill for your application after speaking with a specialist, our application lab will be happy to run your sample and send the results for your inspection. NOTE ABOUT GRINDING ATTACHMENTS Wet samples or samples with high fat content gum up the sieve and chamber, producing a useless grinding result. For these types of samples KINEMATICA provides the POLYMIX® mixer and POLYTRON® homogenizers. They cover a broad range of samples. CUTTING ATTACHMENT Consists of a rotor with three hardened cutting knives and stator with 3 cutting bars. TECHNOLOGY During the cutting process, the sample is spun around the grinding chamber and cut until the desired particle size has been achieved. The ground sample passes through the sieve into the collection container. Particles that are larger than the sieve diameter remain in the mill and can be removed by opening the grinding chamber. Ideal for processing of dry, stringy, fibrous and fat-free materials such as: Wood, bark, roots, leaves, straw, corks, dried fruit, dried fat-free meat, fish fins, fish bones, feathers, leather, leather skin, wool, cotton, linen, paper, coals, turf, grass, dried resins, synthetic materials, fiber glass, plastic pellets, various textiles, felt, etc. BEFORE AFTER HAMMER ATTACHMENT Consists of a rotor with three hardened strike hammers and a grooved stator. TECHNOLOGY During the grinding process, the sample is spun around the grinding chamber and struck until the desired particle size has been achieved. The grinding sample passes through the sieve into the collection container. Particles that are larger than the sieve diameter remain in the mill and can be easily removed by opening the grinding chamber Ideal for processing of dried, brittle and fat-free materials such as: Dried grains, oats, malt, pectin, raw and roasted coffee beans, dry beans, fish skeletons, nut shells, bones, pebbles, rock, amber, ceramics, etc. BEFORE AFTER Brand names with history YOUR APPLICATION IS OUR FOCUS!
